It has a proven success rate of 95%, as proven in 5 major clinical studies. The National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE) recommends it as the modern-day Gold Standard treatment for veins removal. As one of the best methods for treating the underlying causes of varicose veins, it has multiple advantages over traditional invasive techniques like vein stripping.

It involves locating damaged veins and faulty vein valves using ultrasound imagery before using laser heat energy to collapse and the problem vein. Short pulses of laser energy collapse the vein walls and close them off. Blood then redirects itself through healthier veins with no valve damage.
